Little League Season Starts with Parade

Grafton Little League takes to the field for the first time this season Sunday, April 29 during Opening Day, which begins with a parade and continues with a full slate of games.

The parade gets underway from at noon. Players and coaches are asked to arrive at the school by 11:30 a.m.

Opening Day ceremonies will begin as soon as all players and invited guests have marched from the school to the Ferry Street baseball complex.

There will be plenty of food, beverages, games and family activities. Children’s activities include a moon walk, speed pitch and pie-eating contest. Students from DefenseWise Karate will be performing.

A silent auction is being organized, with proceeds benefitting Grafton Little League. In addition, Grafton Little League T-shirts will be available.
